A New Chapter for Scotland: Sebastien Pocognoli's High Risk Hire The appointment of Sebastien Pocognoli as Scotland's new head coach has sent shockwaves through the football world, raising more questions than answers about Scotland's future in international football.
Pocognoli's unorthodox background and lack of senior level international experience make this a high risk gamble for the Scottish Football Association.
On paper, Pocognoli's achievements as a player are respectable – winning the Belgian league with Union Saint Gilloise last year is no mean feat. However, his coaching credentials are more dubious.
